Synopsis

Video games have been a growing influence our culture for a while now. Ever since the 1970s, kids have been jumping into virtual worlds to compete with others, go on adventures, solve puzzles, and more. And while there are many positives about games, there are also many negatives. So how do we navigate that with the students in our youth group and how to we help parents navigate it with their kids? Our guest on this episode is Drew Dixon, author of the book, Know Thy Gamer: A Parent's Guide to Video Games. Drew is an avid gamer himself, is a father of gamers, co-founder of Love Thy Nerd, and has a history of serving in student ministry. In addition to sharing about his book, he provides some valuable tips for helping you and the parents in your ministry.
